INDERA Sports Club (SC)
midfielder Azwan Ali Rahman, regarded as the club's finest young prospect, is
ready to leave the club for the country's only professional football club, DPMM
FC. Indera SC president Pg
Anak Hj Mohd Yassin Pg Anak Safiuddin had hoped that his public talks of Azwan
as a "talented young player" and "Indera's best player",
might help persuade the 21-year-old to stay with the club and ignore the
overtures of DPMM FC. But, in an interview
with The Brunei Times last night, Azwan said that he is ready to leave Indera
for DPMM FC. "I am joining DPMM
FC. We had sorted things with the DPMM FC management. Now I just need to wait
for medical check and fitness test," said the midfielder. "I know Indera are
not willing to let me go. But the power to make the decision is in my hands. I
talked to Pg Anak (Pg Anak Hj Mohd Yassin) about it but he is still reluctant
to let me go. "It is very
difficult for me to le…

INDERA
Sports Club (SC) president Pg Anak Hj Mohd Yassin Pg Anak Safiuddin has
dismissed reports claiming that Azwan Ali Rahman is joining the country's only
professional football club, DPMM FC. DPMM
FC reported on their website on Sunday that they have acquired the services of
the midfielder, who led the DST Super League in scoring last season, from the
newly-crowned champions. However,
Indera's president yesterday took the step of responding directly to the claim
by branding the report as false. Calls
to Azwan and DPMM FC team manager Ali Hj Momin were not answered as of press
time, but Pg Anak Hj Mohd Yassin was more than willing to talk to The Brunei
Times "It
is not true. Azwan is not joining DPMM FC," said the president in an
interview yesterday. "As
the president of the club I can tell you that Azwan is still an Indera player. "He
is our best player and he is very talented. Why would we want to let him go? "He
was the top scorer in…

by AK FAUZI PG SALLEH BANDAR Seri Begawan may have been in the midst
of a downpour but nothing could rain on the parade of Indera Sports Club who
received their trophies and medals after being crowned champions of the
inaugural DST Super League yesterday at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium
in Berakas. Indera claimed the title after a dramatic 1-0
win over the Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) on the final
day of the season on Sunday. Both teams finished the league tied on 22 points
but Indera’s superior goal difference was enough to land them their first
league title since their formation 30 years ago. ‘‘I am very happy of course, this is my first
national league title. I played for MS ABDB from 2004 to 2008 and I never won
any league title with them. I am very grateful and I would like to thank the
management and my teammates for their efforts and contribution,’’ said Indera
captain Muhammad Khayrun Salleh. ‘‘As a captain, my job is to make sure the
players are doi…

INDERA SC received their dues yesterday
after being made to wait four days to lay their hands on the 2013 DST Super
League Challenge Cup following their 1-0 victory over MS ABDB in the ultimate
game of the season on Sunday.

The newly-elected Vice- President of the
National Football Association of Brunei Darussalam (NFABD), Pehin Datu Indera
Sugara Brigadier General (B) Dato Paduka Haji Mohammad Yusof bin Abu Bakar, was
also in attendance to present the league’s runners-up, MS ABDB, with their
trophy, medals and $7,000 cash prize.

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (12 March 2013) –
Indera SC won the Brunei DST Super League 2013 title when they beat Royal Brunei
Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) 1-0 at the Hassanal Bolkiah National
Stadium in Berakas.

Needing to win the game to secure Indera’s first major silverware in 30 years,
midfielder Azwan Ali Rahman scored the only goal in the game in the 82nd minutes
for the well-deserved victory.

With the three points, Indera finished the season on the same 22 points with MS
ABDB but the former won the crown on better goal difference.

“I am very happy. I don’t know how to describe it but this is the first trophy
for Indera in 30 years,” said Omar Md Jamil, the head coach of Indera SC.

“It was a balanced game. Both teams were very cautious and both teams were
looking for the opportunity to counter attack. We put five midfielders to match
them (MS ABDB). They have a very good stamina in the game.”

by JAKE TEN INDERA SC pipped MS ABDB to the DST Super League title after nicking a 1-0 win at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium last night. MS ABDB went into the game leading their opponents by three points, and a draw would have sufficed to secure the title, but it was clear that the then league leaders wanted to end the season on a high. It was the soldiers that were doing most of the attacking in the first half, controlling possession and keeping Indera SC pinned into their own half, with seemingly nowhere to go. Pvt (U) Mohd Isa bin Hj Bahar sent a glancing header just over the bar, before Pvt (U) Mohd Mazazizi bin Mazlan’s shot under pressure was tipped around the post by Ak Omar Nur Aqammadin Pg Hj Sallehuddin. Lcpl Ak Mohd Safri bin Pg Hj Othman looked to have given his side the lead when he hammered home after Indera SC failed to clear their lines from a free-kick, but his premature celebrations were brought to an end as the linesman’s flag denied MS ABDB the lead. Indera SC, wi…

by AK FAUZI PG SALLEH INDERA Sports Club have left it to the final
day of the DST Super League to secure their first major title in 30 years by
defeating fierce rival Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) 1-0
at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium in Berakas last night. "I am very happy. I don't know how to
describe it but this is the first trophy for Indera in 30 years," said
Indera SC coach Hj Omar Hj Md Jamil in an interview with The Brunei Times .
"It was a balanced game. Both teams were very cautious and both teams were
looking for the opportunity to counter attack. We put five midfielders to match
them (MS ABDB) tonight. They have a very good stamina in the game."It was
sweet revenge for Indera, stealing the title on the last day of the season
after losing to the armymen in the final of the DST FA Cup in December. The situation for Indera at the start of the
day was simple; win and they clinch the title, lose or draw, MS ABDB will go
home with…

A FITTING 'edge of the seat' finish is in store
for the inaugural season of the DST Super League. The league will only be able to crown its first
champion on the very last day of the season as Indera Sports Club moved within
three points of leaders Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB)
following their 3-1 victory over Royal Brunei Police Forces Sports Council (MS
PDB) last night. The top two clubs in the competition will clash
on Sunday at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium and a win for Indera will put them level on points against MS ABDB. Their
superior goal difference will however see them go home with the DST Super
League title. "We will fight for the entire 90 minutes.
We will fight for a win. Both (Indera and MS ABDB) are the best attacking teams
in the country. I am expecting a tough game and I think MS ABDB will go out to
win the game too," said Indera SC manager Rosdin Hj Abdul Aziz in an
interview with The Brunei Times aft…

INDERA Sports Club will be lacing up for a
must-win game against the Royal Brunei Police Force Sports Council (MS PDB) in
tonight's DST Super League action. The season draws to a close on Sunday with
leaders Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) taking on Indera,
and though the gap between the two sides is six points, Indera have a game in
hand tonight's tie against the policemen. Anything less than a win at the Balapan Track
& Field at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex in Berakas, and the
title is in the bag for the soldiers. Indera also risk finishing second to Majra if
they fail to beat either the policemen or soldiers, so their manager is fully
aware of the significance of tonight's match. "We can't slip up... We have to win this
game if we are to overtake MS ABDB in the final game," insisted Rosdin Hj
Abd Aziz last night. "We're treating the game against the
policemen as a final. We have to win this game. "These two ne…
